    If you love luxury and appreciate the beauty of nature combined with a coastal lifestyle, you'll admire this fully furnished gem in the Bayside Golf Resort, just four miles from the beach. Set on a private premium lot adjacent to a preservation area, this exquisite home (remodeled in 2022 with a new HVAC, Hardiplank siding, tankless water heater, a new gourmet chef's kitchen, and more -- see attached list of all improvements/upgrades) stands as a testament to uncompromising luxury and refined taste. The grandeur of the property begins with an elegant foyer featuring cathedral ceilings, leading to a sophisticated dining area adorned with stylish design and a refrigerator bar. This home features a grand living room with a striking stone fireplace and a chic, contemporary chef's kitchen equipped with quartz countertops and double ovens. The owners' suite offers a cozy sitting area and a dual bathroom with a spa tub. Four bedrooms on the second level and three en-suite guest bedrooms provide ample space for family and friends. The outdoor area is equally impressive, featuring a screened porch and a spacious, private backyard bordered by trees, providing ample room for entertaining and outdoor activities. There is much to admire, including the cathedral ceilings, bonus/flex room, and elegant lighting fixtures. Every detail, from the architectural design to the interior finishes, has been carefully considered, creating an unparalleled residential experience. This inspiring home features approximately 3,600 sq. ft. of light and airy living space, along with a two-car garage that offers ample room for a custom storage system. Just a few miles from the Ocean City and Fenwick Island beaches (and the local Bayside beach), the community boasts numerous first-class amenities, including a beautiful Health & Aquatic Club featuring a heated indoor lap lane swimming pool and hot tub, locker rooms with saunas, a state-of-the-art fitness center, diverse fitness classes, Peloton bikes, and personal training. The Sun Ridge Tennis & Recreation center is the heart of the Summer at Bayside, offering two luxurious outdoor swimming pools, a kids' splash zone, a waterfall hot tub, a full-service poolside bar and café, live music, kids' camp, and seven tennis courts, including five Har-Tru courts and one hard court, six dedicated pickleball courts, and a basketball court. The Bayside Signature Club House offers over 29,000 sq. ft. of stunning views of the first green, two clay bocce courts, indoor/outdoor dining with fire pits, and a golf simulator,. The Bayside Golf Shop features a heated practice range, putting green, and the Hammer Golf Academy. Other amenities include nature and biking trails, a kayak launch, kids' camps, a beach shuttle, a dog park, and five local dining venues. If you venture closer to "The Point" and the 38 Degrees restaurant, you'll have the opportunity to enjoy al fresco dining overlooking the Assawoman Bay and Ocean City skyline or take a stroll on the Bayside beach, try your hand at crabbing, paddle boarding, kayaking or the Members-only pool and hot tub. For entertainment and music lovers, Bayside also features the Freeman Arts Pavilion, a popular "under the stars" venue offering diverse arts performances and live music. There's something for everyone!!
